Overbearing film with several themes that could have easily formed the bases of their own plots.
I thought this was going to be a film dealing with the trials and tribulations of a married couple finding themselves on the opposite sides regarding 4 boys accused of killing a young fourteen year old girl.
Instead, this turns into a complex web of entanglement. Just about everyone comes under scrutiny including an over zealous, nasty officer.
The ending is equivalent to the macabre, especially when we are all aware that nothing much is ever accomplished via suicide. There is the always overly dramatic scene before the trigger is pulled. Perhaps, the latter should have been pulled on this production.
